Dodgeball Parody Video | 2017

If you can dodge a wrench, you can…buy a car? Car-buying doesn’t have to be painful, in fact, it can be fun!

Our Berman Auto Group team is at it again! This time, in a funny The Stiller Foundation, showcase all the good works the foundation supports, and to give you all a good laugh. Throughout the parody we showed what it feels like shopping at “other car dealerships”, versus the experience you receive when you buy with Berman Auto Group!

We hired actors from The Second City Training Center, and coaxed some of Berman’s General Managers into making clever cameos in this scripted parody. Click here to watch the quippy short film and feel free to share it with your friends!

Berman Auto Group Supports Joey’s Journey | 2017

Recently, Berman Auto Group learned about a young boy named Joey and his journey battling Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). DIPG is a brain tumor found in a part of the brain stem called the pons. The pons controls essential bodily functions such as heartbeat, breathing, swallowing, eye movement, eyesight, and balance. DIPG affects children almost exclusively. Approximately 200-400 children in the United States are diagnosed with DIPG each year.

After learning about Joey’s Journey, we were inspired to donate $500 toward his fundraiser, which can be found on GoFundMe. If you would like to help Joey, please visit https://www.gofundme.com/joeysjourneytodefeatdipg to help today! He has a long way to go, and with your help, he gets closer to reaching his goal.
